I actually don’t agree with that, it doesn’t apply to everyone ! I was always fit and was an athlete for most my life never had issues putting weight. One day I started having those sharp pains in hands and feet, the fr tells me I have RA and put me on meds and steroids to lower inflammation in the body for 6 weeks whilst the meds started acting !exactly when lockdown started where we couldn’t even go out to walk in the park! I put on 15 kg in 2.5/3 months cause of the steroids and struggling to move and stuck indoors all the time . My hunger was off the charts and I could hardly sleep cause of them ! So yeah it was hard coming out of lockdown and trying to get back to work out with the condition but I recently had the courage but had to hire a PT to do things safely and it has been a hard but rewarding journey .
Today I literally fought for 3 hours to not eat crazy… I woke up like &%$& it… CHEAT DAY.. But then I fought .. Hard.. Ended up at the gym instead.. Anyway.. This is a constant battle.. U just gotta win more than u lose👍
Something that was helpful for me with building consistency was to start small. I started doing one squat a day because daily exercise was my goal. I celebrated that one squat. It eventually grew to 5 squats and then 10 squats, 10 push ups, 10 situps and a 20 sec plank. Now I'm in the gym daily. On days when I just can't, the minimum I do for my exercise for the day is that 1 squat to keep the practice active. We have to rewire our thinking around it for it to stick. Thanks for the tips!
Thank you for sharing this, I feel like I have been approaching exercise with the expectation that I can maintain doing a routine that's too hard and that causes me to fall back on consistency.
Appreciate you sharing your method. I to did the same by starting small. Days I had 0 motivation,my mandatory default work out was to jump rope for 10 min.This really helps w/ staying consistent. Thanks for sharing!
Love this concept. Perfection is the cancer that kills our efforts. Nobody's perfect. We will all come up short at some point, but we can't let those moments destroy the whole journey.
O gosh! Me too! I try to eat good most of the time and have an indulgence here and there but sometimes I have too much and I can feel it in my low gym performance.
"Don't try to fix this in a few months because you didn't create this in a few months." Yes, so true!! I needed this because I am VERY hard on myself. ✨🙌🏾
I play basketball for an hour a day and bike for 8 miles and run for 1.2 miles a day to get in shape and to be ready for the upcoming basketball season I lost 15 lbs and I'ma keep going
Congrats! Statistics actually show that not cutting a single calorie but doing some sort of weight training for 4weeks reduces your weight by like 3-4%
Yes consistency is key! At the end 2014, started slowly losing weight...kicked up the gear this March....2014...265...down to 205 by 2017...went up to 226...now 174 (lost 52 since March 2018). I workout everyday (mix of cardio/core/strength) from home and use the fact that I have a dog to walk...and kick that up. Its about an hour a day. I also work on flexibility too. The main thing is diet. Start small with swap outs, take a short walk after dinner. Moderation is key. Easiest is to cut out/down is sugary beverages...they add up quick. Pick workouts that you like, pick a time that works, days that work...pick good foods that you like. Watch your portion sizes.It won’t take overnight...does not have to be perfect...but do not quit. I am aiming for another 24 pounds! 🙌🏾 If anyone is reading this that does not think they can’t...stop! You can. Just be consistent and start small and not overdo. Its all about the build up. He is so right with all his points. TY for the upload
Thank you for detailing your journey! It’s helpful inspiration and encouragement to those starting close to your past starting point. Hope all is well!
I'm on day 48 of deciding to live an active and healthy life ! Definitely wasn't before then. Realized how quickly time passes and how lazy I was being ! Currently down 17 pounds, the goal is 30. I started off trying to starve myself but I'm so glad that's not how I'm doing things now ! Great video, to the point, thank you !
It's nice to follow a Christ centered role model on CZcams, not only for fitness advice, but also good relationship and life advice. Keep it up bro 🤙👍👍👍👊
I used to be slim. then i injured my knee, got into debt, into depression.i loved running so much.i was slim and healthy.after watching your video, i got motivated.consistency, you said to do something is better than doing nothing.and to do what you love.i just do anything and everything whatever my heart feels like for the day.If i can't do it, i modify.i have a long way to go.but i will do my best to be consistent.I'm doing it for me.i just want to feel good.
My weight loss journey started on July 10 2016,and I weighed 265 Pounds. It took Me 11 months to lose 67 pounds. I feel so Good now! Brix I love your channel and what You’re doing. Thanks a Million!💪💪💪
Talk about a happy lady, I just spent about an hour and a half minutes raking my yard cleaning up leaves preparing it for winter here in Colorado. I definitely broke a sweat . My workout is done amen and thank you for this video. Netflix and chill with my hubby.
“Enjoying your workout” I can honestly say that this is the number one thing that has helped me! I play handball and will not move to any state where there are no courts👍🔵
Definitely sharing this with my mom. She wants so bad to lose weight and get healthier. She was just diagnosed with mild osteoporosis and her doctor told her working out will help but she falls off the wagon so easy 😩. Hopefully hearing it from someone else it’ll help!
I keep bouncing from being decently fit to gaining more weight than usual every few months and honestly these tips could help with my frequency and how I look at workouts
Lord knows the number of times I have quit😩... I even paid for a $150 challenge online and I still quit.. I don’t know what’s wrong with me,, I think I’m just lazy. 😕
Thank you for this video ... I never comment on anything , but part of the anxiety of changing a health behavior is contemplating what to do and how and how long and counting and so forth and so on . It becomes painful ... so thanks for giving us easy steps to move from contemplating to action !!
This video let me know I’m doing a good job. I’ve been dieting for about 3 weeks now (this is the longest I’ve ever stuck to my diet) and I told myself I wouldn’t step foot in a gym until I got my nutrition right. 90% of the time, I eat 1 ingredient foods but sure there are times I’ll “cheat” but after those cheat meals, I always flush it with a gallon of water & green tea - I started at 175 and I’m 166 now. Ima give myself probably another 2 weeks before I start working out. Hopefully by my birthday in February, I’ll be 115 😩 wish my luck
This video was right on time! I’m restarting my healthy lifestyle for the umpteenth time and I’m so sick of falling off! I truly want this to be my life
I’m on my 6th day working out. I’m scared to fall on my bad habits again and abandon this momentum I currently have right now. I don’t wanna quit, but I fear I might sabotage myself again. I just want to do this for myself really ( ｡･-･｡｀) I’m tired of postponing my goals for a short term satisfaction. Thank you so much for this! Wish me luck.
Just subscribed! The key point for me was to start slow and focus on one thing. Even going to the gym once a week. I have been putting off going to the gym because I felt as though I needed this perfect regimen and meal plan and I just dreaded the whole thing. I dreaded working out all the time, being hungry, eating salads, etc. But you are the first person who said alot in a short video! Definitely checking out your website for more info. Thanks!!!
THIS CAME ON MY FEED AT THE PERFECT TIME!!! I recently started roller derby and “derby doesn’t make you fit, you get fit for derby”. I have practice tonight and I decided to be lazy today, but I knew I needed to get up and workout and keep my improved eating habits. Then this video popped up on my feed. Now I’m about to start my workout. Thank you so much for this.
This was helpful for me! Thank you! Just starting up again with making working out and eating better/healthier. Keeping it simple, slow, and steady pace!
I’m doing 5 days a week, not excited honestly. But I know I need this. For myself, for my future kids, and wife. Even for my immediate family. I wanna be the best me I could be. Thanks for this video! Helped me a lot.
Damn, I love and respect how he shows he was fat before so he get it and he show us that it can be done through his transformation. Let’s gooooooo😅 fifth time around😳💪🏾
Maybe once every two weeks i skip my pull workout, literally has like 10 less sets than my push workout. I wake at 5 in the morning which gives me plenty of excuses to skip. I hate working out when i get home from school. This video is helpful!
Human bodies reacts by momentum. What I mean by that is that if you didn’t exercise most of your life your momentum is to sit down and not move so much. But if your active your body’s momentum will change and your body would wanna move without u even Thinkin about it. Last year I went to the gym almost everyday but I would hoop for like 3-4 hrs cuz I love b-ball. So by the time I’m done and boutta workout I’m spent on energy. But I was new so I wasn’t too aware of this. I was goin for months Eventually your gonna have to make a decision to get better or quit overall. Keep pushing. What I didn’t realized is I watching creating a habit of just being active. Now that I have shifted my momentum, everything else came easy. Build the habit first then go from there. Gettin to the gym is the hardest part!!!!
I'm all in this fitness quest I'm doing now. It's been one solid year of consistently hitting the gym, lifting and cardio. I've definitely been seeing results and so has my friends, but I'm not satisfied with my gains and losses. Muscle gains and fat loss, but I'm not done never. Stay hungry, go for the gusto, and keep bangin' weights and cardio for life. 💯💪👍
I think the best part of your channel is the fact that not only do we get good sound advice, but there's practical wisdom in everything you teach. It's so refreshing and right on point. Always a subscriber
I’ve been working out for about 2-3 years now and no results. Only because I haven’t been consistent during any time. When I say 2-3 years I mean in between times.. I get so motivated to do better to work out but sometimes I get so lazy.. so therefore I’ve not made a difference. But this video has made me think otherwise. Start off small n work ur way up don’t try doing it all at once, is the best thing I’ve heard. And as of today I’m going to try my hardest and be consistent and not give up. THANKS TO YOU ! Thank you I love this I’m so glad I came across your videos ! I appreciate you ❤️ 🏋️♀️
I believe in what you said, I was stressed and I went for a walk the first day, then the second day, I told my self I wish I could walk at least 3 days a week, I told my self look you don't need to push your self don't make it by force, when ever you feel you can walk go for it, that was 3 months and half ago, no almost I go for walk daily, the point is don't force ur self, take it slow and once we see changes in our bodies we become addicted to it and it's a stress relief, now I'm think of going to the gym a lifting some weights, I know I'll be overwhelmed by the equipments I'll see and too much information, but I'll take it slow without forcing You sum it up in the word (CONSISTENCY) Thank you, you made me more aware of it 🙏
Game changer for me. Thank you. I've been thinking these things for a while but wasn't able to put it in words or complete thoughts. I was trying to figure out why I want to excercise when I don't actually like to excercise. I'm going to focus on learning to enjoy the process. I used to work an active job so fitness was just natural. Now after my 4th baby I am STRUGGLING. I have gained 40 lbs and my son just turned 10 months old.
I'm very impatient and hate moving my body. This helped a lot. I felt bad for having some soda today but this made me realize I'm only at the beginning.
I really appreciate you educating me on your fitness goals I lost 200lbs in 2010 had a kidney transplant 2014 steroids put 80 lbs on me I had weight loss surgery 2016 however 20/20 I have gained 35 pounds im trying to get these pounds off your education is so helpful. I've already started my weight-loss Journey so thank you for the encouragement. I have watch your journey you're the best💪🏿 Congratulations on your weight loss
Just started my new job and it just seems like I don’t have time to workout in the morning or night. Really trying to get back into the swing of things
Just now seeing this video for the first time. I don’t comment ever! But I’ve been struggling with this exact topic. This was very well needed to hear thank you.
Definitely needed to hear this I have a bad habit of seeing the slightest change in weight loss and getting too excited and ditching exercise I needed the encouragement in order to keep being consistent
I really appreciate this video and you reaching out to others wanting help for themselves! includes myself! opened my mindset more about my consistency!watching more
Honestly thank you so much I lowkey didnt know why I hated the thought until I realized I just did the bike and hate that shit thank you your a smart person
Yoooo i needed this bro. Ive been following you and a few othrr reputable gurus and have seen major change in the last 18 months. Brand new body brand new wardrobe and tons of mcompliments. But for some reason ive been on a like 2 week long cheat day. Im still working out pretty heavy but my diet has been shit for some reason. This was right on time
Thank you brix. I'm ready for change & this is pure motivation! I wish I had you as a trainer because I ccould use all the help I can get. I subscribed so I will tune in everyday . Motivation.
Wow I haven't been consistent in the gym and this was just a great refresher and reminder of me trying to get back into the gym! Thank you this helped 👍🏽
Get to the gym. Even if it’s for five minutes. Just get there. Every day or almost every day. Make it a habit and need, a lifestyle desire - not a drag or a “have to.” Just get there. Evolve your goals. Don’t be put off by gym rats and arrogant people. Be yourself. Do yourself right.
I recently started my weight loss journey. I’ve been going to the gym and I completely cut off soda and started drinking water. I still feel bad sometimes because I don’t eat healthy but I try to make myself feel better and say to myself that at least I’m starting off somewhere.
Hey. You’re really great. Personable, positive, & also blunt. Just subscribed & going to start watching more. Willpower has limited energy. So dang true!!! Thank you!!
I've been trying to stick to home workouts during this lockdown. I've not always stuck to schedule, missed a day or two. But I'm trying to stick to two days a week at least.
I went full on cold turkey and cut so many bad things from my day to day diet. Sodas, deserts, fast food etc. I'm not eating super clean, but I've cut portions and count calories of my meal without looking at macros too much. My willpower carried me for a while, but then when it faded, it's discipline that took over. Same with my training, I've been a runner for 3 years but last 2 I wasn't doing too much because covid killed all my motivation. Well now, I'm fucking doing cardio and running every. single. day. Why? Because the grind, the suck, the discipline of it.
Remember it is ok to take a day off every now and then. You can even just do half a workout if you’re busy. If you are busy and active two days in a row, you can work on sit-ups and upper body the first day. Then on the second day, you can work on your lower body/legs. Hope that wasn’t confusing. You’ve got this ❤️ :D
Literally was going to search for a video like this and ended up in my home page. Always seem to get burnt out with the gym after 4-8 weeks. My biggest issue is constantly craving fast food and drinking. I'm not huge by any means but I've definitely put on 25lbs of fat in the last year. This video helped a lot. Any quick tips for me to help with my food and drinking issue?
Just gotta say great video! For someone who is trying to focus on just staying consistent with incorporating movement into my life (nothing more, nothing less), this video has come at a perfect time in my life! Very excited to have come across your channel. It's like a needle in a haystack honestly! Keep up with what you're doing!! subbing to channel and podcast right now!
I'm on my way to losing 30 pounds, I'm a bit overweight. I wanted to know how I could stay constant with my exercise and my life style change. Thank you for the info!
“DONT TRY TO FIX THIS IN A FEW MONTHS BECAUSE YOU DIDNT CREATE THE PROBLEM IN A FEW MONTHS”
i felt that
Ivan Cortes that’s something I always remember 👌keys those are keys 🔑
My stomach growled
Yessuh!! The SHO NUFF truth 💯
I actually don’t agree with that, it doesn’t apply to everyone ! I was always fit and was an athlete for most my life never had issues putting weight. One day I started having those sharp pains in hands and feet, the fr tells me I have RA and put me on meds and steroids to lower inflammation in the body for 6 weeks whilst the meds started acting !exactly when lockdown started where we couldn’t even go out to walk in the park! I put on 15 kg in 2.5/3 months cause of the steroids and struggling to move and stuck indoors all the time . My hunger was off the charts and I could hardly sleep cause of them ! So yeah it was hard coming out of lockdown and trying to get back to work out with the condition but I recently had the courage but had to hire a PT to do things safely and it has been a hard but rewarding journey .
😲
Today I literally fought for 3 hours to not eat crazy… I woke up like &%$& it… CHEAT DAY.. But then I fought .. Hard.. Ended up at the gym instead..
Anyway.. This is a constant battle.. U just gotta win more than u lose👍
MrJreed1000 agree 100% like your positivity
Jus Kennie 👍👍👍
ChaniaMor Chania thank you.. I appreciate the love and positivity
"win more than you lose" I love this. I act like I have to win all the time when it comes to nutrition.
I get my ass beat in that battle 😭😭 Cheesecake Factory delivers in Kuwait

Appreciate you sharing your method. I to did the same by starting small. Days I had 0 motivation,my mandatory default work out was to jump rope for 10 min.This really helps w/ staying consistent. Thanks for sharing!
Consistency>perfection. Do “good” for a long time; no need to be perfect 24/7. Brick by brick. It all adds up!
Love this concept. Perfection is the cancer that kills our efforts. Nobody's perfect. We will all come up short at some point, but we can't let those moments destroy the whole journey.
ffoster77 That’s right! All you have to do is “not quit” and you’ll see you share of success.
💯
Anthony Monda I love this
yep! Step by step, bit by bit, stone by stone, mile by mile 💪🏽 keep going!
“Hate your workouts as least as possible” 😂 best quote ever
My problem is not going to the gym it’s resisting food
Hcaz Htims same bro

Legit 🙇🏽♀️
O gosh! Me too! I try to eat good most of the time and have an indulgence here and there but sometimes I have too much and I can feel it in my low gym performance.

"Don't try to fix this in a few months because you didn't create this in a few months."
Yes, so true!! I needed this because I am VERY hard on myself. ✨🙌🏾

I lost about 91 pounds since 2014! (52 since March).
Was 265 not 174.
GL to you!!
Silent Targeter congratulations on the weight loss! That’s amazing. I’m currently 221 working on getting down to 185 by December.
Congrats man just starting off too!
Congrats! Statistics actually show that not cutting a single calorie but doing some sort of weight training for 4weeks reduces your weight by like 3-4%
I lost 60lbs in 5 months just switching to whole foods and intermittent fasting
I heard someone say to “look at your workouts as part of your routine and not a punishment for not having your dream body” and that helped me so much
Yes consistency is key! At the end 2014, started slowly losing weight...kicked up the gear this
March....2014...265...down to 205 by 2017...went up to 226...now 174 (lost 52 since March 2018).
I workout everyday (mix of cardio/core/strength) from home and use the fact that I have a dog to walk...and kick that up. Its about an hour a day. I also work on flexibility too.

I started off trying to starve myself but I'm so glad that's not how I'm doing things now ! Great video, to the point, thank you !
The “enjoying your workouts” part is probably a fundamental element to consistency which lots of people lack
It's nice to follow a Christ centered role model on CZcams, not only for fitness advice, but also good relationship and life advice. Keep it up bro 🤙👍👍👍👊
Instead of being on youtube for 2 hrs knock it down to 1 and put that extra hr in the gym
That's real!
#whynotbothcommercial
People always ask me how I lose weight and how do I find the time? I ALWAYS say I play video games or watch tv an hour less per day.
BOWWWW
I used to be slim. then i injured my knee, got into debt, into depression.i loved running so much.i was slim and healthy.after watching your video, i got motivated.consistency, you said to do something is better than doing nothing.and to do what you love.i just do anything and everything whatever my heart feels like for the day.If i can't do it, i modify.i have a long way to go.but i will do my best to be consistent.I'm doing it for me.i just want to feel good.

It's mental. You have to be tired of being fat. That's how I ended up in the gym every day.
Miss Jenn same problem
Girls preach I have the same issue!!
Same 🤣

I love how simplified this video is. I related to this message so deeply. It just takes the "pressure" off and allows you to ease into the lifestyle!
Going through this right now. Yoyo dieting destroys self-esteem.
Look up intermittent fasting.
THIS CAME ON MY FEED AT THE PERFECT TIME!!! I recently started roller derby and “derby doesn’t make you fit, you get fit for derby”.

Thank you I love this I’m so glad I came across your videos ! I appreciate you ❤️ 🏋️♀️
Love this!! See, when you come from the heart, you reach the heart!! ♥️ Let’s get the likes up brix squad 🙌
I believe in what you said, I was stressed and I went for a walk the first day, then the second day, I told my self I wish I could walk at least 3 days a week, I told my self look you don't need to push your self don't make it by force, when ever you feel you can walk go for it, that was 3 months and half ago, no almost I go for walk daily, the point is don't force ur self, take it slow and once we see changes in our bodies we become addicted to it and it's a stress relief, now I'm think of going to the gym a lifting some weights, I know I'll be overwhelmed by the equipments I'll see and too much information, but I'll take it slow without forcing
You sum it up in the word (CONSISTENCY)
Thank you, you made me more aware of it 🙏
Omg when he said “it’s Monday” I died lol 😂 it’s so true
Usually people tell beginners to jump into it 100% from the start. It's good to hear this from a more realistic Point of View
Just coming across your video while looking for ways to stay consistent. I loved what you said and it was really helpful. Thank you!
Game changer for me. Thank you. I've been thinking these things for a while but wasn't able to put it in words or complete thoughts. I was trying to figure out why I want to excercise when I don't actually like to excercise. I'm going to focus on learning to enjoy the process. I used to work an active job so fitness was just natural. Now after my 4th baby I am STRUGGLING. I have gained 40 lbs and my son just turned 10 months old.
I'm very impatient and hate moving my body. This helped a lot. I felt bad for having some soda today but this made me realize I'm only at the beginning.
I really appreciate you educating me on your fitness goals I lost 200lbs in 2010 had a kidney transplant 2014 steroids put 80 lbs on me I had weight loss surgery 2016 however 20/20 I have gained 35 pounds im trying to get these pounds off your education is so helpful. I've already started my weight-loss Journey so thank you for the encouragement. I have watch your journey you're the best💪🏿
Congratulations on your weight loss
Yuuuur!!! “Willpower” love how you broke that down my guy. “Pump your brakes fam” Haha love when the NY comes out. #NYsVeryOwn 👑

I'm not a beginner but I like watching these kinds of videos just to see what people have to share. I must say, excellent video !
Just started my new job and it just seems like I don’t have time to workout in the morning or night. Really trying to get back into the swing of things
Just now seeing this video for the first time. I don’t comment ever! But I’ve been struggling with this exact topic. This was very well needed to hear thank you.
Thank you for being so real and honest. Im one of the people that didnt want to workout because i overcomplicated workouts
Definitely needed to hear this
I have a bad habit of seeing the slightest change in weight loss and getting too excited and ditching exercise
I needed the encouragement in order to keep being consistent
Yeah that's it what I'm looking for trying to develop the mindset to make this fitness journey a life long journey
I really appreciate this video and you reaching out to others wanting help for themselves! includes myself! opened my mindset more about my consistency!watching more

I needed to hear this today, It's been so hard to jump back in the gym lately.love your videos man keep it up
This is soooo helpful! Very encouraging
Yoooo i needed this bro. Ive been following you and a few othrr reputable gurus and have seen major change in the last 18 months. Brand new body brand new wardrobe and tons of mcompliments. But for some reason ive been on a like 2 week long cheat day. Im still working out pretty heavy but my diet has been shit for some reason. This was right on time
All the way from Ghana. You have impacted me so much. Am enjoying my weight loss journey. Bless
Thank You, for being so clear and honest, about how to start slowly , and I work my way through.
This was very helpful today, and will continue to apply along the joy. Simplicity helps to be consistent.
Thank you for reminding me about taking it slow and not burning out too quick
Thank you brix. I'm ready for change & this is pure motivation! I wish I had you as a trainer because I ccould use all the help I can get. I subscribed so I will tune in everyday . Motivation.
Exercise is movement thank you for that 💯
Wow I haven't been consistent in the gym and this was just a great refresher and reminder of me trying to get back into the gym! Thank you this helped 👍🏽
This is such a good video, helped me out and get to know abit more. Thanks! :)
Thx my man this is really helpful!
Súper helpful thank you!! We out here trying! Had a rough few weeks with lack of will power and motivation but we back out here!!
Good shit bro, plain straight and simple for those that start out to hard then crash then say it's too hard, take it one step at a time , 👍👍👍
Great advice I steer clear from jumping jacks and burpees... did spin and machines and list 2o lbs ... do what u like
Get to the gym. Even if it’s for five minutes. Just get there. Every day or almost every day. Make it a habit and need, a lifestyle desire - not a drag or a “have to.”
Just get there. Evolve your goals. Don’t be put off by gym rats and arrogant people. Be yourself. Do yourself right.
I recently started my weight loss journey. I’ve been going to the gym and I completely cut off soda and started drinking water. I still feel bad sometimes because I don’t eat healthy but I try to make myself feel better and say to myself that at least I’m starting off somewhere.
I just started my journey about 2 weeks ago and this video really helped me!! Thank you so much for making this!!
Hey. You’re really great. Personable, positive, & also blunt. Just subscribed & going to start watching more. Willpower has limited energy. So dang true!!! Thank you!!
Brix gives some of the best information you can get
I've been trying to stick to home workouts during this lockdown. I've not always stuck to schedule, missed a day or two. But I'm trying to stick to two days a week at least.
I love this guy he helps so much
Great approach! Great advice. Thanks for the info! Dope video bro

My guy I just recently discovered your channel thank you for providing some fire content must I make 1 reccomedation GET WELL AND GET WEALTHY
Best fitness nutrition channel on CZcams.
I went full on cold turkey and cut so many bad things from my day to day diet. Sodas, deserts, fast food etc. I'm not eating super clean, but I've cut portions and count calories of my meal without looking at macros too much. My willpower carried me for a while, but then when it faded, it's discipline that took over.
Same with my training, I've been a runner for 3 years but last 2 I wasn't doing too much because covid killed all my motivation. Well now, I'm fucking doing cardio and running every. single. day. Why? Because the grind, the suck, the discipline of it.
That’s a Philosophy That’s Applicable to Everything...
Great advice! Thank you for the video.
Thanks so much for the support and tips.
Remember it is ok to take a day off every now and then. You can even just do half a workout if you’re busy. If you are busy and active two days in a row, you can work on sit-ups and upper body the first day. Then on the second day, you can work on your lower body/legs. Hope that wasn’t confusing. You’ve got this ❤️ :D
Literally was going to search for a video like this and ended up in my home page. Always seem to get burnt out with the gym after 4-8 weeks. My biggest issue is constantly craving fast food and drinking. I'm not huge by any means but I've definitely put on 25lbs of fat in the last year. This video helped a lot. Any quick tips for me to help with my food and drinking issue?
This is so Deep i had to watch it twice
Dude.. ME TOO
New to the gym too?
Man you hit the nail on the head with this one #salute
Really appreciate your advice in this video bro. I think it will really help me to focus.
Just gotta say great video! For someone who is trying to focus on just staying consistent with incorporating movement into my life (nothing more, nothing less), this video has come at a perfect time in my life! Very excited to have come across your channel. It's like a needle in a haystack honestly! Keep up with what you're doing!! subbing to channel and podcast right now!
❤️
So needed to hear this right now!! Another awesome vid. Thanks brix
This was a very simple yet helpful and realistic video. I could easily implement these tips! Thanks!
I'm on my way to losing 30 pounds, I'm a bit overweight. I wanted to know how I could stay constant with my exercise and my life style change. Thank you for the info!
